Your Top 5 Spyderco Folders made at the Taichung plant

Earlier in this thread I said I was getting the Sage 2. Went with the Techno instead. Also own the Sage 1. Both are amazing.

When can we get a CF or titanium PM2 from Taichung!? :thumbup:

There are rumblings about a fluted CF PM2 in the works and a titanium one with a frame lock version of the compression lock has also been mentioned before. I really hope one of those sees the light of day soon.
 
I only have the Gayle Bradley, Sage 1, and Sage 2 and out of those three it's the GB hands down. One of the few knives that if I lost it I'd buy another the next day. I just got the Sage 2 and am looking at Maprik stonewashing the handles, and can't think of anything else I want to do to it...ideas? Think I'm going to have him acid wash my GB blade too. It looks like he does some amazing work.

I'm getting a Southard to try before I buy in the next couple days, and hoping it's gonna blow me away like most on here say it does for them. Plus I'm already looking at getting it pimped with spketch hardwood scales...maybe green micarta..slight maybe.

They're all great! I really need to get my paws on a Gayle Bradley and Sage 2, then a Southard and maybe a Techno. :D
 
Updated Post# 1 with all the Upcoming, Discontinued and Current Spyderco folders made at the Taichung plant.

Looking forward soon to Rubicon, Chubby, Dog Tag and K2.

I think it's going to be a while before we see the very popular Slysz Bowie!

Sage 2..the first by far... fits my hand so well...
Dice..for the shorter blade and full-sized grip
Sage 3 in blue G-10 (love Spydie blue)
Spyderco GB Air (for girly-gifts)
TUFF (woods-capable)
 
Not in any particular order, though 3 of these Taichung models are in my all time top 5 from all of Spyderco's lineup.
